Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump doesn't have many fans in Indian Country or among women by Lynn Armitage, a member of the Oneida Nation in Wisconsin, explains why she supports the controversial candidate over Democrat Hillary Clinton:

First off, I agree that Donald J. Trump is not a perfect human being. Then again, who is? Thanks to Hillary’s hard-working opposition research team, we are learning that there are many skeletons in Trump’s closet—which he built himself, encased in gold, by the way.

However, as a woman, I don’t give a flying flip what Trump said, privately, on a bus 11 years ago to Billy Bush. What I do care about is what is going to happen to this country if Hillary Clinton, the Queen of Open Borders, gets elected.

Thanks to WikiLeaks, we now know of her plans, in her own words: “My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, sometime in the future …” she declared in a closed-door 2013 speech to Brazilian bankers, for which she was paid a handsome $225,000.

But somehow, Hillary’s frightening vision for America has become lost in the Trump sex tape scandal and other frenzied campaign distractions that her team has been tossing at us like grenades, as if to say: “Look here, not there!”

So in case you missed it (and you probably did if you watch CNN, MSNBC and other alphabet-soup networks), Hillary Clinton, if elected president, has vowed to roll out the welcome mat to 650,000 refugees from Syria and other war-torn countries in the Middle East. This generous display of hospitality amounts to a 550% increase in the number of refugees Obama has ushered in this past year.
